At Wayman & Long, your privacy is very important to us. We will always treat your personal information with respect. We will constantly try to meet the highest standards when collecting and using personal information.

This privacy policy explains what personal information we collect from you and how we use it, in line with current data protection legislation. Please click on the titles below for more details on each topic.

Use of cookies

When someone visits the http://waymanandlong.co.uk/ domain, we use a third-party service called Google Analytics to analyse web user activity and identify behaviour patterns. We use this information to gain insights into the best and worst performing areas of our website in order to introduce improvements and make the user experience better for you.
We perform this monitoring by placing cookies on your machine which collect data such as pages visited, length of time spent on each page, links clicked, operating system and device type. This is statistical data about our web visitors’ browsing actions and does not identify any named individual. However, you can activate your ‘Do Not Track’ settings to opt out of this use of cookies. These settings are available in the ‘Tools’ or ‘Settings’ area of your web browser.

‘Contact us’ form

Our website contains an e-completable ‘Contact us’ form at http://waymanandlong.co.uk/contact-us/ Data submitted in this form – namely your name, company, email address, telephone number, subject and message – is sent to us via an email from our website content management system, WordPress. We use this data to contact the individual concerned, discuss their marketing-related query and offer Wayman & Long’s services. We don’t share this data with any other organisations.

Links to other websites

This privacy notice does not cover links from our website to other sites. We encourage you to read the privacy notices on any other websites you visit.

When you call the Wayman & Long team, we only log your personal information or add your name to our database if you ask us to do so or instruct us to work on your behalf. When you email the Wayman & Long team, we monitor content, including file attachments, for viruses or malicious software. None of this information will be shared with any other organisations.

Wayman & Long offers a wide range of legal services, family law to commercial dispute resolution. To deliver our services, we hold contact and account data on our clients. This data is collated, stored and managed by our data controller Philip Povey, and selected data is only shared with Wayman & Long employees as services demand. You can see our full staff list at http://waymanandlong.co.uk/meet-the-team/.

We believe we have a legitimate business need to store and process your personal information for some marketing purposes, whether you’re a client (on the basis that we can continue our professional relationship) or a prospective client (on the basis that we provide useful marketing newsletters of a non-sales nature). As such, we’re operating under the ‘legitimate interests’ lawful ground for processing, as defined by GDPR, but you always have a choice. Clear opt out mechanisms are provided at all times.

Under GDPR, you have certain rights as an individual which you can exercise in relation to the personal information we hold on you. These include the right to rectification and right to object, both of which we’ve already mentioned in the sections above.
